Why relationship coaching? That‘s easy to see: A warm, happy relationship is something most people are looking for. Falling in love and getting married is only the first step. Eventually the road of marriage might prove to be more challenging than we imagine in the beginning. Consequently, keeping a relationship not only alive but happy means to face reality. We have to survive the realization that we are not married to the perfect spouse. In addition we need to start to appreciate and cherish the imperfect person that is our partner. Every single day!
Whenever a relationship gets rocky or breaks up, this is usually not really due to one or both partners being at fault. In most cases it means that somehow, somewhere, the spouses have lost the chance to align their expectations, dreams, wishes.
“We come to love not by finding a perfect person, but by learning to see an imperfect person perfectly.” Sam Keen
To keep a relationship alive or to save a relationship from breaking up is an ongoing project. Actually it means working on our own expectations and attitudes and on the way you communicate. This is where a relationship coach can help you. A good relationship coach will not provide you with answers – just the opposite! By asking you the right questions your coach will enable you to find the answers you are looking for within yourself.
Relationship Coaching is actually a very efficient way to find and change disruptive behaviors that threaten your relationship. All without having to resort to „official“ marriage counseling or even psychotherapy!
